About the Item

Giuseppe CASCIARO Ortelle 1861 - Naples 1941 A street in Naples Pastel on strong paper 1906 Signed and dated lower left Studio stamp on the back 67 x 43 cm sheet 84 x 60 cm frame Frame with reversed profile, 20th century Good condition, small, barely visible stain in the middle on the left Giuseppe Casciaro was born in Ortelle in the province of Lecce. He studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Naples under Domenico Morelli, Filippo Palizzi, Gioacchino Toma. There, he won many distinctions and prizes. He was inspired by an exhibition of pastel drawings by Francesco Paolo Michetti in Naples in 1885 to such an extent that pastel became his preferred medium. Casciaro had his own exhibition of pastel drawings in Naples in 1887. His subjects were typically views in and around Naples and the islands of Capri and Ischia. During the years 1892-96, the artist traveled to Paris where the Goupil Gallery had a one-man exhibition of his work and from whom he received several commissions. In 1900, Casciaro won a bronze medal at the Exposition Universelle in Paris. By 1902, he was a professor at the Accademia in Naples and, by 1906, had been appointed to teach Elena di Savoia, the Queen of Italy, the art of pastel drawing. His work was exhibited frequently throughout Europe, and in San Francisco, Tokyo and South America.

Henry Ottmann (1877-1927) A forest in the mist, pastel signed
By Henri Ottmann
Located in Paris, FR
Henry Ottmann (1877-1927) "Orée du bois par brume", A forest in the mist signed lower right pastel on paper 24 x 32 cm In good condition In a vintage frame : 43.5 x 53 cm The gilding on the frame is missing in many places Henry Ottmann particularly excelled in the pastel technique, as can be seen here. This is due to the fact that this delicate material obviously lends itself very well to the artist's characteristic vaporous style and manner. We should also note the great modernity of this landscape and its fades, which go almost as far as abstraction. Henry Ottmann was born on 10 April 1877 in Ancenis. He made his debut at the Salon La Libre Esthétique in Brussels in 1904 and took part in the Salon des Indépendants in Paris from 1905, the Salon d'Automne, the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts and the Salon des Tuileries. In 1911 and 1912, Ottmann exhibited at the Artistes de la Société Moderne at the Gallery Paul Durand-Ruel together with Armand Guillaumin, Henri Lebasque and others. In 1912, he exhibited at the gallery Eugène Druet. In 1920, Ottmann exhibited at the gallery Marcel...
